M: I stand corrected.

I know, right? And I have only myself to blame. I’ve talked to her in adult terms since she was born, really only censoring out cursing and the really incomprehensible stuff for her various ages.

Makes me see how, perhaps, some of my exes were on to something when they spoke of how exhausting I could be at times. 😉 Thank you for reading!
